Boom boom boom…
All the teachers and students of Zhehang University who were still on campus stood here. The sky above their heads was almost black, and there were flying beasts of various shapes bombarding the city defense formation of Zhehang City.
The entire huge Zhehang city-state is protected by the thin blue membrane created by the formation.
"Commander, there are too many ferocious beasts, and the energy of the city defense formation is consumed too quickly! The replenishment speed is far slower than the consumption speed, and it will be consumed in a week at most!" At the core of the Zhehang city-state formation, several formation masters of the Imperial Guard in military uniforms were sweating profusely.
They couldn't believe that this was only the first wave and the number was so terrifying. It was simply too scary. You know, the mid-level ferocious beasts in the beast tide haven't appeared yet!
"Then use the backup hidden energy and defend it at all costs to prevent the formation from breaking!" said an officer with two bars and three stars on his shoulders solemnly.
The backup hidden energy sources are specially refined and used as strategic resources. It can be said that they will never be used unless it is a life-or-death moment. If the conversion rate of top-grade spirit stones to formation energy is 20% to 30%, then the conversion rate of these backup hidden energy sources is more than 50% to 60%, or even higher!
However, refining the backup hidden energy source is extremely difficult. Only cultivators with extremely high attainments in formation formations and cultivation levels of the fifth or sixth level or above can refine it. It is extremely precious, and preciousness also means that there are only a few of them...
…
In the Zhehang University Square, a vice president of Zhehang University is standing on a high platform and giving a speech.
"Classmates, I'm sorry to wake you up, but now is a matter of life and death. A global beast tide has occurred, and no one can escape it!"
"This isn't just a fight for us personally, for Zhe University, for Zhehang City-State, and for the Blue Star Federal Republic. It's a war for all humanity. It's a war of races. No human can escape. Success means continued survival on Blue Star. Failure will only result in the destruction of our nation and our race!"
"This kind of national destruction and genocide is not the kind of destruction between nations or people in history, but the destruction of the entire human race!"
“…”
After hearing the vice-principal's speech, everyone felt extremely depressed, especially those who were already worried and afraid.
They are all people of this generation and have never been exposed to the global beast tide that destroyed a country or a clan seventy or eighty years ago. These are things that happened in TV, movies and novels. They didn't expect that they would suddenly appear in reality.
"Oh my god, I'm dying... How could a global beast tide happen? I feel like I'm living in a dream..."
"I slept soundly tonight, but suddenly I was woken by a series of thunderous noises. The vice-principal told me that a beast tide was coming. I've never experienced one since I was a child, and I felt like I was dreaming. I can't take it anymore. I want to sleep..."
"It's all over. There's no hope for humanity. I often read history books, and compared to the ferocious beasts, we humans are just little brothers. If we hadn't had the Speaker dragging us away, we would have gone to hell long ago..."
“Mom and Dad…”
…
After hearing the vice president's words, Zhehang University couldn't help but burst into a frenzy. Some were optimistic, some were pessimistic, and many were worried about their loved ones who were not in Zhehang City-State...
As someone who has scanned several libraries and various jade talismans, and whose amount of information is comparable to that of a mobile computer, Li Ran naturally knows very well what the global beast tide means.
Although he felt the same way, he was not too worried. One reason was the confidence that came from his strength. Whether it was his own strength or that of the Zerg, he did not worry too much. Moreover, even if humans were completely defeated, he could still connect his family to the Wood Spirit Space. With peace of mind, he would naturally not panic or be afraid.
He also thought about exposing the Supreme Zerg to help humanity, but even though he had tens of thousands of Zerg nests that could hatch nearly 50 million Zerg in half an hour, what good would that do? It was just a drop in the bucket.
This is a global beast tide, and it came too suddenly. If Li Ran had been told in advance, it might have left tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of insect nests all over the world, but now it is impossible to take care of every part of the world.
The national population is only tens of billions, and Li Ran's Zerg base cannot even match the number of people, let alone the global beast tide, which has ferocious beasts that are billions of times more numerous than the total population!
Humans do not even occupy one ten-thousandth or even more of the fixed territory on Earth. The other areas are all areas where alien beasts live. You can imagine the gap. If there were not various races among the alien beasts, including the Warcraft and Demonic Beast races, and if they were not in harmony with each other, humans would have disappeared long ago.
Compared with ferocious beasts, although the number of demon beasts and monsters is extremely small, their individual strength is among the strongest. Over the years, under the threat of ferocious beasts, it seems that they have gradually tended to ally with humans. It is conceivable how terrifying ferocious beasts are.
Although Li Ran usually kills ferocious beasts as easily as stepping on ants, that depends on who he is. He is a man with a system. From a pessimistic point of view, only the tens of thousands of human cultivators in each major realm who can enter the strength list have the ability to fight one-on-one, or even one-on-many. The others can only work in groups...
The solution to the problem of numbers can only be achieved through technology. If we rely entirely on practitioners, the human race would have been extinct long ago. Practitioners are still used to carry out beheadings or deal with stronger ferocious beasts.
…
Seeing the vice president of Zhehang University leading all the students to the battlefield, Li Ran did not follow. The teachers outside the school did not notice him. If he had been discovered, he would not have been too embarrassed to ask to leave. Of course, he was not running away.
Some people prioritize their country over their world, while others prioritize their family over their country. In Li Ran's eyes, both are correct, but he belongs to the latter. Without a family, what meaning does his country hold for him? He deeply respects heroes who sacrifice everything for their country, even to the point of feeling guilty towards their families. But despite his heartfelt respect, he can't live up to that ideal.
He couldn't leave his parents and relatives, and with his current strength, he could still have the best of both worlds.
…
"Mom and Dad, where are you?"
Li Ran used his spiritual sense and mental power to search over and over again but couldn't find anyone. He couldn't help but feel a pang in his heart, wondering if Xiaobai had followed them. He was extremely anxious, but he felt relieved when he thought that Xiaobai should be with them.
Xiaobai is now a fifth-order out-of-body demon beast, and his bloodline has been upgraded to a top-grade spirit beast by Li Ran! With such strength, even a sixth-order beast can be easily defeated by a cultivator, and even the aftermath of a battle with a high-level warrior can definitely be stopped...
At this moment, Li Ran suddenly felt the breath of her parents and Xiaobai, and they disappeared instantly, leaving only the somewhat dazed and blushing Blade Queen Sarah.
"Mom and Dad, where have you been? Wasn't Dad at home just now?" Li Ran came to his parents and complained a little.
"Son, son, do you have any way to save grandpa?" Li Huwen ignored his son's complaints and frowned.
He is now extremely worried. Although Li Ran's mother doesn't quite understand what the global beast tide means, Li Huwen, as a history professor, naturally knows the devastating disaster of the global beast tide!
